Concerning the Baensch Aquarium Atlas series, do the books build upon one another in the sense that volume two includes all of the species found in volume one and then additional one, or does volume two contain only species entirely new to the series?

Sort of a mix. Most of Volume Two's fish are not included in the other books, with a few exceptions here and there. Same goes for the other Volumes in the series, they are mainly independent of each other.

I highly recomend them. I have the first 3. There is also a ton of plants in them.

I have all the baensch aquarium atlases , the marine versions, and the cichlid atlas, and even the one on fossil fish, together they are a really hard to beat source of reference, and involve probably more on diseases , plants, and fish species than most people are ever likely to need. They dont cover every aspect on care on each individual species as perhaps a beginner would ask for, but for people of intermediate experience or greater, they are excellent reading. You get the odd repetition or update, but mostly the books all cover different fish.
